OK! Well I am trying to make a new map and I made a server and all so I can host it to test it out. Well the config file is fine, but when I try to launch it, it doesn't work. SO I tried a different map and it worked. So then I tried my map again and it doesn't work. So now I'm trying to figure out why my map doesn't work for the server.

Attached is the map file, I hope you can help. Thanks in advanced!

Code: Select all

meshbox
 pos 0 0 0
 size 400 400 0
 matref GroundMaterial
 phydrv GroundMaterial         #applies the killer thingy 
end
What the hell is "pos"? :)

GroundMaterial is a phydrv and a material. I'm not sure if those clash.

So rename the one? Should that help it and make it work for a server?

Yeah, name on GroundMaterial_phydrv and the other GroundMaterial_mat I'm not sure if thats the problem, I don't understand why its the map, the server startup gives no errors. Also can't connect to server can mean A LOT of things.

Well just note that I tried the same config on the same computer but a different map and it worked. I'll edit this post to tell you if it worked or not.

EDIT: Well changing the names of those in the beginning didn't help but commenting off the zones and textures for the objest fixed it! WooHoo! I have one zone go through a box, could that be the problem?

Alright! So I changed the names back and blocked out ONLY zones and the server works! Do zones work in 2.0.4? And if so, can't they be 0.1 0.1 0.0 in size?

This is the problem, can you tell me what's wrong here?

Code: Select all

zone
 name flagSW
 position 0.0 0.0 300.0
 size 0.1 0.1 0.1
 flag SW
end

Sorry to break it to you but flags are bigger than that, do size 5 5 5 or something. It doesn't matter that much does it? also, you could make it really tall, and put the position 0 0 0 (height liek 1000) then it will spawn the top most part of the middle and you cant miss and put the zone in the building/in the air.

NVM I got it! I just have to move the position up to 300.1! Check out my map in the other forum!
